new swimsuit

A friend told us about some nice swim shorts for girls at Marshalls.  M also found a nice new swim shirt so she's good for another summer of fabulous carefree, sunburn free, fun.  I'm so grateful my girls accept these swim clothes that cover their bodies.  I primarily care about keeping their bodies covered.  I'm also happy that they never have to have a sunburn on their back, shoulders, thighs, or but.  It saves us so much sadness.  No matter how good you put the sunscreen on, the bathingsuits most girls wear shift just enough to leave you with a line of sunburn right on those tender areas.

punk rock princess

M got a dress with sparkles last week.  We put sleeves on it and she wore it to church.  This week she added black leggings and boots to turn her glittery outfit into a punk rock costume.  It's neat to see P's sense of fashion manifest in M.  I wish I could have seen his face when his punk rock princess came into sacrament meeting.  I was staying home with a runny nose, teething baby.
